ID: oval:org.secpod.oval:def:35147Date: (C)2016-06-10   (M)2023-12-13
Class: COMPLIANCEFamily: windows




This option is useful if you need to control whether this computer receives unicast responses to its outgoing multicast or broadcast messages. Counter Measure: Disable this setting to prevent the client from receiving unicast responses. Potential Impact: If you enable this setting and this computer sends multicast or broadcast messages to other computers, Windows Firewall with Advanced Security waits as long as three seconds for unicast responses from the other computers and then blocks all later responses. If you disable this setting and this computer sends a multicast or broadcast message to other computers, Windows Firewall with Advanced Security blocks the unicast responses sent by those other computers. Fix: (1) GPO: Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Windows Firewall with Advanced Security\Windows Firewall with Advanced Security\Windows Firewall Properties\Public Profile\Windows Firewall: Public: Allow unicast response (2) REG: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\WindowsFirewall\PublicProfile!DisableUnicastResponsesToMulticastBroadcast
